Engineering Materials and Heat Treatment (FSI-HMT-K)

Academic year 2018/2019
Supervisor: prof. Ing. Rudolf Foret, CSc.  
Supervising institute: ÚMVI all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The aim of the course is to provide students with knowledge necessary to choose and use constructional materials in order to reach utility properties. The course is a follow-up to the following courses: "Introduction to Material Science and Engineering", "Structure and Property of Materials", and is intended to deepen and widen the acquired knowledge in the area of engineering applications.
Learning outcomes and competences:
Successful completion of the course will enable students to choose the right materials and use them in practice.
Prerequisites:
The course is a follow-up to the courses BUM and 3SV and is intended to deepen and widen the acquired knowledge in the area of engineering applications.
Course contents:
The course “Engineering Materials and Heat Treatment” familiarises students with constructional and tool metals, as well as non-metal materials, which are used in mechanical engineering nowadays. Lessons are focused on relations among the chemical composition, properties, structure of material, and its use. The course deals with the following topics:
- influence of metallurgy on properties and structure of steel and alloys
- phase changes during the heat processing
- construction steel
- weldability of steels
- mechanical properties of steels
- steels and alloys for casts
- tool materials.
Teaching methods and criteria:
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Teaching is suplemented by practical laboratory work.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
Course-unit credit is awarded on condition of having attended 100% seminars with active participation and worked out a paper regarding the presented topics. Excused absence has to be compensated for via working out an alternative assignment. The exam has a written and an oral part. The written part is focused on four of the main topics presented in the lectures. In the oral part of the exam a student answers additional and complementary questions.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Missed lessons may be compensated for by the agreement with the teacher.
